Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, she sure knows how to wear a blazer

Here’s the photo to take out when someone tells you: “How boring the blazer is!”. Because the wonderful Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, in the shot that immortalizes the guest of photographer Mert Alas’ party during Paris Fashion Week, shows off one of those looks that can only be defined as perfect and memorable. Based, precisely, on the more classic, seen and revisited than blazers. Which however, in the actress’ interpretation, takes on a whole new level of glamour. And applause.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley adopts one of the riskiest rules of the style, that is, the one that wants to see contrasts in agreement: a rule to be handled with great caution and only if capable of maintaining balance even where the balance is precarious. Because it takes a moment to fall into the mess nonsense of garments and accessories completely uncoordinated with each other.

But this is not the case of the actress, who takes a long skirt at the feetstraight but soft, with a very light train, between gray and black and a paradigmatic double-breasted black blazerboth Valentino, combining them with the furthest thing from these rigorous, chaste and slightly serious garments: a bra of sparkling crystals. The clash is astonishing: one plus one, in his case, equals ten. Blazer plus silver bra, equal absolute wonder.

There are two extra touches of a true master. The first, the shoulder bag also sparkling and silver – and also it Valentino Garavani – to recall the flashes of the bra. The second, the way of wearing the jacket: just placed on her shoulders, ready to fly away, to slide lasciviously… starting a crazy night of celebrations.

There is only more to learn from Rosie.
